Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The 806 grips the court well but does offer some slide. They grip the concrete court well. Getting just the right traction and stability. The support are durability are good and it holds up well.

Only complaint is the shoe seems to run a little big. Typical new balance quality and comfort. Very well crafted shoes.

Shoes are great for indoor and outdoor courts. Great for placing pickkeball. Used for pickle ball. I am always spilling stuff on my shoes or getting them dirty with my pets.

When they arrive i though, crikey! Replaced v4 with these. They feel possibly better than the previous version even if they aren't as sleek looking.



Cons

When the toe bends, it creates a deep crease that presses down on the foot. The rest is mostly stiff and feels much cheaper and heavier.

Quality


I love these to play pickleball , comfortable , light weight and good grip


I believe that new balance tennis shoes are great quality and have used for 30+years.


I have played with 696 six times and have tripped twice and fallen once.


Excellent court shoes, my last shoes (v4) lasted around 1.

Price


5 stars for a good shoe at a reasonable price.


This is a great tennis shoe for a good price.


Maybe next version will truly be wide or an extra wide for us …… and still be around $80.


Good price and grip on the court.

Packaging/appearance


Shoe box was ripped and torn yet the outside amazon packaging was intact.


I was a bit disappointed with the box situation yet just happy to have the shoes.

Competitiveness


I have wide foot and these shoes are much more comfortable, roomy in the toes and has a better lacing system than the 806.


My problem is that i need wide toe boxes on my shoes, so i have trouble finding brands and models for comfort.
